Lighting Design Standards

Proper workplace lighting design is essential in generating a
comfortable and relaxing work setting, and in effect, serving to augment
performance and the quality of worker output. Design stipulations for
workplace lighting are conditional upon psychological and physiological
responses in humans. Read more about the psychological effect of
lighting on people in different settings, These standards endeavor to integrate illumination requirements
into the design principles of various luminaires in order to optimize
necessary lighting practices. Guidelines specific to crime prevention,
adherence to security codes, and the protection of persons, are also
included.

Design Guide for Choosing Light Sources for General Lighting

This Design Guide introduces most of the light sources employed in
general and accent lighting luminaires. This updated edition includes
more comprehensive technical & performance data on Solid State
Lighting (SSL). Additional updates and enhancements for high and low
pressure discharge lamp sources have been incorporated into this
document, exemplifying their increasing diversity and technological
advances while bringing into perspective important comparisons with SSL.
For specific application of any light source one should consult the
latest IES Lighting Handbook, 10th Edition, other applicable IES
publications and manufacturer's lamp, ballast, driver and luminaire
catalogs or web sites.

Light + Design - A Guide to Designing Quality Lighting for People and Buildings

Vision and light enable us to understand the physical universe. Light is
the portal through which the eye, and thereby the human mind, interacts
with the world, and is therefore capable of creating worlds of
perception. Based on this understanding of light as a medium, the
composition of light in a space can inspire a wide range of
psychological and even physiological responses in humans. Throughout the
ages, people spent most of their time outdoors and relied on sunlight,
moonlight, starlight, firelight. During the day, people had little
control over the lighting that they were given from nature, but it was
dynamic. The moving sun continually created subtle changes in the
landscape, revealing and obscuring texture and detail through light and
shadow, color and brightness. Today, people in industrialized nations
spend most of their lives indoors and rely on electric light as their
medium to interpret architectural environments. Electric light enables
designers to control the medium, use it for communication, and thereby
inspire different perceptions and achieve a range of functional and
aesthetic goals. Good lighting provides sufficient illumination for
people to see and perform visual tasks; it can also draw attention,
influence social interaction, foster mood and atmosphere, beautify space
and architecture, promote safety and security, increase comfort and
contribute to task performance. Poor lighting can have the opposite
effects.

Guideline on Security Lighting for People, Property, and Public Spaces

This document is intended to provide specific guidelines for situations
where it has been determined that security is an issue and is an
important determining factor in the design or retrofit of a given
property.This publication includes specific sections dealing with
critical infrastructure and homeland security. In addition, we have
incorporated many of the lessons learned and applied by these agencies
throughout.

This European Standard specifies design loads for lighting columns. It
applies to lighting columns of nominal height (including any bracket)
not exceeding 20 m. Special structural designs to permit the attachment
of signs, overhead wires, etc. are not covered by this European
Standard.The requirements for lighting columns made from materials other
than concrete, steel, aluminium or fibre reinforced polymer composite
(for example wood, plastic and cast iron) are not specifically covered
in this standard. Fibre reinforced polymer composite lighting columns
are covered in this document, in conjunction with Annex B of EN
40-7:2002.This European Standard includes performance requirements for
horizontal loads due to wind. Passive safety and the behaviour of a
lighting column under the impact of a vehicle are not addressed. Such
lighting columns will have additional requirements (see EN 12767).

This European Standard specifies the requirements for the verification
of the design of steel, aluminium, concrete and fibre reinforced polymer
composite lighting columns by testing. It gives type tests and so does
not cover testing for quality control purposes. It applies to lighting
columns of nominal height (including any bracket) not exceeding 20 m.
Special structural designs to permit the attachment of signs, overhead
wires, etc. are not covered by this European Standard.This European
Standard includes a simplified method for testing steel and aluminium
lighting columns. Refer to EN 40-4 for concrete lighting columns and to
EN 40-7 for fibre reinforced polymer composite lighting columns.NOTEFor a
more detailed test procedure, refer to Annex D of EN 1990:2002.The
requirements for lighting columns made from materials other than
concrete, steel, aluminium or fibre reinforced polymer composite (for
example wood, plastic and cast iron) are not specifically covered in
this European Standard. This European Standard includes performance
requirements for horizontal loads due to wind. Passive safety and the
behaviour of a lighting column under the impact of a vehicle are not
addressed. Such lighting columns will have additional requirements (see
EN 12767).

This European Standard specifies the requirements for the verification
of the design of lighting columns by calculation. It applies to lighting
columns of nominal height (including any bracket) not exceeding 20 m.
Special structural designs to permit the attachment of signs, overhead
wires, etc. are not covered by this European Standard.The requirements
for lighting columns made from materials other than concrete, steel,
aluminium or fibre reinforced polymer composite (for example wood,
plastic and cast iron) are not specifically covered in this standard.
Fibre reinforced polymer composite lighting columns are covered in this
standard in conjunction with EN 40-7.This European Standard includes
performance requirements for horizontal loads due to wind. Passive
safety and the behaviour of a lighting column under the impact of a
vehicle are not addressed. Such lighting columns will have additional
requirements (see EN 12767).The calculations used in this European
Standard are based on limit state principles, where the effects of
factored loads are compared with the relevant resistance of the
structure. Two limit states are considered:a)the ultimate limit state,
which corresponds to the load-carrying capacity of the lighting
column;b)the serviceability limit state, which relates to the deflection
of the lighting column in service.NOTEIn following this approach,
simplifications appropriate to lighting columns have been adopted, These
are:1)the calculations are applicable to circular and regular octagonal
cross-sections;2)the number of separate partial safety factors have
been reduced to a minimum;3)serviceability partial safety factors have a
value equal to unity.
